Route
editLine S12, a cross-city route, heads initially in a southerly direction from Milano Bovisa through the Milan Passante railway to Milano Rogoredo. From there, it turns south-east towards its southern terminus, Melegnano.[2]
History
editThe route was activated on 12 September 2016.[3] The route was suspended on 25 February 2020 due to COVID-19 pandemic[4] and it has been partially restored in August 2023, with four trains per direction per day, running at 15 minutes intervals when paired with line S1.[5]A more complete service shall be restored in 2024:[6] since June 2024, service has been expanded, with 10 round trip per day from Cormano-Cusano Milanino to Melegnano and one round trip per day between Cormano-Cusano Milanino and Milano Rogoredo; this has been made possibile by the construction and opening of the third track from Milano Affori to Cormano-Cusano, allowing for more separation between regional trains, which run express from Affori to Cesano Maderno, and suburban all-stopping trains.[7]
